You Know You Love Christmas When...
The Office Christmas

It's that time of year again. Finals are over and school is out for the semester, so do you know what that means? It's almost Christmas!It's that time of year again. Finals are over and school is out for the semester, so do you know what that means? It's almost Christmas! However, this also means that now you've got to start stressing about the upcoming holidays and all of the crap you need to do before the season of giving truly begins.

1. You've only been home for a half an hour and your mom makes you and your sister go out and pick out the perfect tree.

2. You and your siblings get to decorate the "perfect" tree you picked out and you fight over who gets to put the star on top.

3. You make a trip to the mall to buy all the gifts you put off getting and prepping for the annual "Secret Santa" party you throw with your family.

4. You check your bank statement and find out that you actually have no money to buy gifts for people.

5. Your relatives arrive and all the weird family traditions start showing up.

6. You go to church and you try to convince your parents that you've been going to church at school and you know they know you're lying.

7. You ended up making homemade gifts for you and your friends that are full of inside jokes and it ends up being a huge hit!

8. You inevitably end up doing Christmas Karaoke with all of your friends and family.

9. You consider texting that special person in your life and wonder if they maybe feel the same for you too.

10. You end up blasting the "Rock and Roll Christmas" song instead.

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
